Next Home Game at Bradford College

Latvian, Rihards Šulcs (Sponsored by Templewood Photography)almost went from hero to villain on Saturday evening, as the Bradford Dragons took a thrilling overtime win against Worthing Thunder (127-126), in the Dragons’ Den.

Sulcs had played a solid game throughout and, along with American point guard Marcus Gooding (Sponsored by Gooding Funeral Services), headed the Bradford scorers on 34 points. But a needless foul in the dying moment of normal time gave Worthing the opportunity to steal the game.

With the Dragons leading by a single point (114-113) Eisley Swaine was sent to the line for two shots. With only a fraction of a second remaining on the clock Swaine had the opportunity to seal the game but fell short with both shots.

Head coach, Chris Mellor was left disappointed on Saturday, when he watched his Bradford Dragons team go down (80-68) at Northumbria University's Sport Central Arena, against last season's champions, Team Northumbria. ​Whilst the North Easterners may not have been quite as prolific this season around, they are still sat comfortably in fourth position in the league table and had already beaten the Dragons in their two previous encounters this season. However, on the back of their magnificent double victory, the previous weekend, the Dragons were high in confidence going into this fixture.

It’s a massive day for Bradford Dragons Basketball Club as Bradford Council start work on what will become our new home.

With an anticipated 18 month build period, we hope to be in for the start of the 2019/20 season.
